- Cut out your paper pattern and then fabric as follows: 1 from outer fabric, 1 from lining fabric, 1 from wadding
- Fuse your fleece to your outer fabric or glue mount/baste with a narrow seam allowance
- Place your fabric right sides together with the fleece on the bottom and sew all the way around the outside edge leaving a small opening where marked on your pattern piece
